 Aligning
the mission so that it maintains internal congruency is an ongoing process
that includes a combination of assessment, study, and alignment.
In general, services provided in this category pertain to the
alignment of the mission once the mission design has already been
introduced. This process
normally commences after the business plan has been developed and approved
remains in place over the life of the mission.
OAC's products in
this area include the following.
Aligning
the Mission Structure – Catalog # AP1
This process
identifies functional and strategic objectives and aligns them with the
organizational structure at the critical task level. It is highly useful
in technically complex missions and missions that place strong emphasis on
performance. It is a useful tool for streamlining the mission once
the mission is already operational. It is also useful when creating
a new organization, increasing the performance of an existing
organization, and when conducting downsizing activities. This tool is
often used when performing value and mission integration activities.
Value
Integration Strategies –Catalog
# AP2
In
general, value integration strategies are used to assure critical values
are implemented as required throughout the mission. The integration of each value requires a slightly different
method for implementation. During
the alignment process, value integration exercises are particularly
useful. Investigating values at this time and integrating them at
critical junctures is imperative to creating a mission structure that
accomplishes the goals and objectives necessary to hold the mission in
place.
Performance
Programs – Catalog # AP3
Performance has
always been a forefront value for successful missions.
With the added pressure of continuing streams of new technology,
successful missions will continue to pursue innovation in human
performance. In response to
these needs, OAC offers services that promote the performance of work
through the following formats.
Motivational
Strategies – Catalog # AP3A
Advances
in neurological modeling have made it possible for the behavior of highly
motivated people to be modeled. In
most cases, your own organization or people you know can provide the
modeling structure and access to values needed to promote winning
strategies in your mission. OAC
can help build highly effective organizations using these techniques.
Teambuilding
through the Investigation of Complex Equivalents
– Catalog # AP3B
Of
the many tools necessary to create the dynamics required to manifest a
preconceived outcome, the investigation of complex equivalents has to be
one of the most important. What
we have found is that people qualify missions through a set of filters that
speak to the value they will assign to that mission.
Exploring complex equivalents is a mechanism through which one can
identify both similarities and dissimilarities that govern one's responses
to a particular concept or idea. Understanding
these conceptual variances and negotiating a common ground can produce a
highly effective team.
Success
Modeling, NLP Calibration Techniques, and Reframing Outcomes – Catalog #
AP3C
Success
modeling draws on several techniques that support the enhancement of
overall performance whether the effort is directed towards an individual
or team. OAC guides these
processes on both individual and group bases.
Leadership
Development – Catalog #AP4

successive development of leaders in all parts of the mission is important if one expects future growth to occur. OAC offers several programs to promote the development of
leaders.

this process.

process teaches managers about the structure of these programs and the
importance of knowing the baseline dynamics that support them.
This course is a must for developing managers.
Self-Assessment
and Self-Critique Programs – Catalog # AP4D
The
value of self-assessment has long proven in many of the business sectors
in which OAC has worked. We
have promoted these concepts for many years and now through this program,
we teach not only the value of self-assessment, but also how it is most
effectively conducted. Also as a
part of this program, we offer assistance in installing a self-assessment process, including
the development of methodology you will need to perform the assessment and
the mechanism you will need to monitor trends you will uncover as your
process becomes routine.

important role in measuring the output of a mission. OAC's services in this area include the following.

they capture the performance of mission in a manner so that corrective
action can be taken in advance of a major system failure.

needed to assure the mission performs well.
